who put the voodoo curse on me? Nice little high-side today

[Slo]

Alright, even the damn voodoo curse isn't stopping me now. First it was a battle getting days off and swapping days at work to make the Hastings race.... Then it's the financial side of getting race ready..... Then, get certified and getting the MRA license, still determined though. Then it was a set back with my tires for the car, still can't stop me. What's next, more $$$ for a tint ticket, no problem. Now???

Just highsided my bike at friggin IMI......ON A WARM UP LAP!!!!! No broken bones, just bumps and bruises, broken windscreen, peg, shifter peg bracket, nice chunk taken out of my helmet, right on the forehead, slight, very slight rash on the leathers, and a funny memory of thinking "OH FUCK ME".....

Joe from Rebellion Motorsports will be looking into replacement parts for me on Monday, already ordered the stupid windscreen. Dirk will be loaning me a helmet if I can't find a good deal on a cheapie.

Am I about to call it quits? F*ck no!!!!! Hahaha, now I want to get out there more than ever.

I'm glad you are without broken bones anyway. hope repairs aren't too ex$pensive.
Is "nice little highside" an oxymoron? I believe it is.

[fullgrownbear]

Glad you're Ok Slo. What happened anyhow? Did anyone catch it on camera?

I got an extra helmet also, if you crash dirk's.

[Sully]

Damn Jay ! Glad you're ok ! Are you sure you didn't bump your head because you still have a crazy urge to race

[teamhypoxia]

Damn Jay!
I was gonna head over there today but it seemed a little cold and windy for my taste. Thought tomorrow would be better.

Maybe you're just getting all your bad luck out of the way before the race

[Suki]

wowza, glad that you walked away from it and are okay.

hmmm... luck should be changing annnnnny minute, time to buy that lotto ticket!

[Slo]

I always do 4 warm up laps there...... Came out of turn 2 (to the left) on the first lap and did a quick shake for any rocks/pebbles on the tires and some friggin person must have been pokin at the lil asian doll with pins and sh*t, while kicking a little suzuki toy motorcycle and wala, there I go flying.

Seriously, rear tire broke loose, went real wide, caught, and I was airborne. body turned to the right (left side hit) and face right dead square into the asphault.

But hey.....at least I can say I was looking into the fall????

No video on that one, my camcorder was screwed up all day and no one else was even ready, I was the first one out on that session.

Thanks everyone, yeah, hopefully nothing else can go wrong before the race, but damn, I still have two more weeks to go!!!!! I feel like the friggin road runner, oops, the wolf/coyote thingymajig that keeps getting the sh*t end.

[MetaLord 9]

damn, glad you're alright man! Take your rabbit's foot for your next race & send the voodoo lady pack'n!

[firefghtr]

damn bro save those fantastic crashes for when i have the camera out there and in a real race. glad your good though. i also have an extra lid if needed bro. let me know if you need anything. we could always have a garage night before i leave on my cruise to get your bike ready again for the race

[ZX Rider]

Damn it Jay.
You have to stop getting in trouble like that.
I'm sure once you start racing everything will be just fine.
Good luck buddy.

[Slo]

Thanks Sebastian, you should come visit Hastings with us. Garrett, luckily, I've already had 4 helmets offered to me for Hastings but definitely appreciate it. Will be taking the bike to Dirks soon to throw on the engine casings, number plates (Monday my # should be confirmed), safety wire, fluid change, and obviously my repairs.

[PhL0aTeR]

Damn Jay..... when it rains it pours... let me know if you need anything.

Damn Jay..... when it rains it pours... let me know if you need anything.

Thanks man, really appreciate it....

Jay-

Glad you're o.k. Give 'em hell in Hastings!

Yeah, hopefully this pain goes away from my elbow to my three fingers and also on my hip, probably a couple days of bruising hopefully. Either way, I have gone through too much sh*t to give up hastings now.

damn jay! i was gonna call you tonight and see if ya wanted to go to the practice tomorrow down in pueblo : (

Whats going on Eric, yeah, unfortunately I wouldn't have been able to make it down there anyways. Have fun and be safe down there.

[dirkterrell]

Next time, take the damn tire warmers out there. Glad you're no worse off than bumps and bruises. This RF-1000 is yours to use. I hardly ever use it anymore.

Dirk

[pilot]

Glad you are OK. Good hunting on the parts and helmet.

[mastap07]

[green_zx7r]

Glad you are ok. Hope you heal up in time for the race. Good luck sir.

[Bueller]

Sux Jay, shit happens though lol

[lovinCO]

Sorry to hear about the get off, glad you're ok Jay! Dang, and I thought we saw you riding on Deckers today too.

[Devaclis]

That sux Jay. Good to hear you are OK. Shit will get better man. Bad things happen in 3's so you are all set

[Slo]

Thanks again everyone, actually I thought I would wake up even more sore this morning but it wasn't as bad. Yesterday had a hard time getting in and out of the car but today, was still sore but once sitting on the bike, felt alright, just couldn't move around as much. I guess riding is the cure for many things.

Sorry to hear about the get off, glad you're ok Jay! Dang, and I thought we saw you riding on Deckers today too.

Went on a ride late in the day to nederlands, p2p and down highway 7. Just an easy slow ride......
